Hungry and struggling
Jul 27, 2011
Help!!! I'm one week and one day post op surgery. I'm hungry ALL the time and oftentimes feel light headed. I'm having a bad case of indigestion/heart burn, acid reflux, and gas. I take prilosec but it's not helping. I've also started exercising (walking) 30 mins a day b/c the dr. said that walking helps eliminate the gas but the walking isn't helping me much either (I'm sure it's helping with the weight loss but not as much with gas). I'm so sick of this liquid diet and I'll admit.....i cheated on Monday b/c I thought I was about to lose my mind if I sipped on anymore broth. I pureed me some tuna salad and also ate some mashed potatoes. I kept them both down without vomitting but on last night I had a bad case of the runs and I felt horrible! I'm just real miserable right now. When will I be able to eat foods such as mashed potatoes, shrimp, vegetables, fish, etc...without getting sick? This is so hard for me right now. Any words of advice???
